We had the most wonderful time with John, Véronique, Becky and John-Marc. They went out of their way to make it such a special holiday for us. My husband and I went there for one week and every day we discovered more of the island, the people and how they live. John can arrange every activity you want and we could decide that spontaneously in the morning. We went to the volcanoe, to the Yakel tribe, to a local english school, to the village nearby, to the local market and even cooked Simboro and Laplap with them. John also accompanied us on every trip and gave us additional informations and he even speaks the language clik, so he could also communicate with the people of the Yakel tribe. Every evening, after dinner, John made a fire at the nearby fireplace to enjoy the rest of the evening. When you want to see the real Tanna you definitely have to go to this place.

nothing it was exceptional

We enjoyed the location (going to the beach, watching local’s life, visiting the school next door). But the best were John and Veronique that were super friendly. They also helped us arrange transportation to the volcano. The food options are limited but always great! Veronique really makes it look great too. The breakfast was plenty and yummy. And we enjoyed the bonfire at night.

The room might welcome a little maintenance (door and shower curtain) but overall we were satisfied! It might be a good idea to add something to put or hang clothes.

I LOVED staying here and didn't want to leave. Veronique and Jean-Marc are really friendly and worked hard to make my stay really enjoyable. The breakfast is included and all food was really delicious. The gardens are beautiful and the setting by the beach simply wonderful. There is free wi-fi. It was a wonderful place to relax. You can get there by bus from the airport if you don't have much luggage but the position of the bungalows is slightly wrong on google maps.

No complaints, everything was great.

Becky and Glen were absolutely lovely, so helpful when we had an issue as soon as we arrived and great throughout the stay! The bungalows were right by the beach, spacious and had private bathrooms which was a luxury too! Definitely good value for money and really enjoyed! Breakfast was also included, simple but tasty and filling.

The sea was a bit difficult to get into at lower tide due to the coral but Glen directed us to deeper spot which was better. Dinner could have been more varied but was still good.

As we were travelling on a budget and keen to meet the locals Alofa Beach bungalows was the perfect balance of comfort and friendly hospitality. Simple, relaxing and authentic looking bungalows with ensuite, running water and hot showers. The host were lovely and ready to help with whatever we needed. The food was nice. Pancakes for breakfast :) The bungalows are near a long stretch of coral strewn beach typical of Vanuatu and close to the local village. Perfect alternative to the resorts if you're after a more authentic experience.

Good tip is not to bring food into your bungalows as it attracts little animals ;)

Great property. Right on the beach. Very well maintained and the family that run it are very friendly and helpful. We were coming from spending two nights in a tree house near Mt Yasur volcano which had no electricity and running water. From there to here with electricity and hot water it was an amazing feeling :) the restaurant has some great food too and an amazing breakfast spread.

Going to the Lenakel market and coming back is a bit of a pain given this property is off the main road. Having said that the owners make it really easy by calling a car when you do need to go. So it's not too bad.

The staff were amazingly responsive to queries I had before arrival and continued to be super friendly during the stay. They organised travel logistics for activities and are well informed. Alofa is right at the beach and close to town!

Nothing much I did not like. It would have been great to have more cold beers in the fridge, I missed eggs at breakfast and to get to the volcano is quite a drive. Though I enjoyed the drive there as I was able to see more of the island.

John and Veronique were amazing hosts and were extremely helpful when our flights got cancelled. They happily involved us in their local culture and showed us their customs. Everything is clean, beds are super comfy. When the shower head broke he immediately fixed it within 24h. You can have breakfast, lunch and dinner for reasonable prices and all meals very good and delicious. I'm all positive about my 4-night stay, highly recommended!

The location is very beautiful! Just sitting behind a beautiful beach where you will find no other tourists! Just other friendly locals! 😊 Food was fairly cheap and very good. The owners are super nice and will help you out as best as they can!

It’s a little bit pricey for a basic accomodation. But still a very good experience

The staff pay a lot of attention to detail. Place settings for meals are beautiful. The cooking is very good, with a limited menu. Staff very helpful with advice and make sure guests are happy. Hot water showers, and electricity all day! Very good value for money. Quiet, clean and peaceful. Easy local buses to Lemakel, airport and other resorts.

Internet can be slow, but that is a general problem for the island, not the bungalows.
